I'm not sure what prior critique you're referring to. Also, we no
longer plan to include nested modules in ES6. Also^2, concatenation
should simply require literally concatenating the modules, with
`module "NAME" { ... }` wrappers with appropriate names based on the
file system (in the common case where development occurs in multiple
node-style files).
